History
In the 17th century Kolobreg was a tribal stronghold located within the Tkara Cheifdom and later part of the Aureg Confederation until its dissolution in 1637. Łobez was first mentioned in a document from 1601, according to a local cheif named Korko. After the integration of native lands into Polonias, most of the land in the city was granted to the Chruch. By 1701 Kolobreg received town rights. A castle was built in 1703, which was later converted into the Chruch of the Sacred Heart
